Record Network Information
Ÿ Lift your Gateway and find the label on the
bottom of the device.
(Bottom of Gateway)
Ÿ Record the SSID (5.0GHz), SSID (2.4GHz), and
encryption key (password) below. You’ll need it
to connect to your wireless network.
SSID (5.0GHz): __________________________
SSID (2.4GHz): __________________________
Encryption Key: __________________________
Connect to the Wireless Network
Ÿ On your Wi-Fi device, confirm that Wi-Fi is
turned on and view available wireless networks.
Ÿ Select an SSID from the list of available
networks. If you see both the 2.4 GHz and 5
GHz SSIDs, connect to either one. Otherwise,
connect to the 2.4 GHz SSID.
Note: When deciding between 2.4 GHz and 5
GHz SSIDs, consider the following:
Ÿ Select 2.4 GHz if wireless range is a priority.
Ÿ Select 5 GHz if network speed is a priority.
There generally are fewer Wi-Fi devices and
less interference in the 5 GHz band.
Ÿ In the Network Security Key field (Windows) or
Password field (Mac), enter the case-sensitive
Encryption Key you recorded in Step 6.
Ÿ Click the OK, Connect, Join, or Apply button.
Your device should now connect to the Internet.
Ÿ Launch a web browser and enter a valid URL
(for example, www.pace.com
